Amy is my name...
in reply to a message by Gigi
Amy is my name. I didn't like the way it sounded growing up, but I've grown to like it (I'm 19). It's short, simple, timeless, and spunky. Kind of cute, but not frilly or stuck in one decade. It's not as common as you might think. It's just steadily used. I've never had that big a problem with others popping up in the same room. I just happened to be close friends with the one other Amy in my grade of 600 or so kids. If you think it goes well with the other names on your list, go ahead, add it. It's a good name. But I'd use it with a strong less common middle name because Amy doesn't have many nicknames. This site says Mimi is but I've never heard that one.
